The Real Janelle

Do you have a copper IUD? My doc recommended the Mirena but I didn’t get around to it (because $$$$) and discovered that I have waaaay fewer migraines now that I’m not on hormonal BC. I could probably deal with an IUD but I worry about those huge periods from hell I keep hearing about.

My doctors suggested having sex every other day, all cycle long, for likelier success at pregnancy. Seems more fun and less time consuming than tracking temperature and all that other stuff.

All of this is true. Oh, also: some sperm can survive for a fucking week in there! I know when I got pregnant that sperm was at least 4 days old and still worked.

Used it after quitting BC, can confirm. I’m too scared of pregnancy now so I’d rather trust condoms.

Wait, there are TWO types of sloths???

Ooh, a fellow Chilean! When not asshats, our guys are fun :)

Probably yes! As a Latin American woman I was hoping it was just our guys. It does seem to be a feature here though.

The Latino boyfriend sounds like a stereotypical guy bought up in Latin American culture - super proud and unwilling to take criticism from a woman. We have those here as well, and I dated one. I don’t think you have to put up with such tantrums and they will probably get worse as he ages. You are literally not

I also interpreted as the parents being all “yes, darling” to Morgan but otherwise not giving a shit about her opinions. The best course of action is not to engage with this sister at all.

I liked/didn’t mind carpet before, but my cat destroys them with claws and loose hair. I can never have carpet again while he’s alive.

I am hoping the healthcare bill changes some people’s minds. I’ve read about guys who are super against Obamacare but are insured under ACA and haven’t realized it’s the same damn thing.

As a González, I thank you for this comment.

I’d take the lipo (already had one but I could use some extra help). I just don’t like that one should do such drastic alterations, like tattoo removal, just to have a party.

Must be a Pnina Tornai.

Life for men is so unfair! Can you imagine being around town, doing whatever you want, and then someone preventing you from doing the thing you wanted to do? It’s such a hardship, being a man in this day and age.

Ugh, men!! Why can’t they just take a joke????

Oh also: the real YouTube queen for this stuff is Enilsa Brown. I checked out tons of videos when we last discussed Dr Pimple Popper and Enilsa is next level shit.

Ohhhh I hope it arrives in my local cable. I watch a shit ton of TLC shows via this channel called Discovery Home&Health and this sounds right up their alley.

I have a long time therapist (for about 8 years now) and we haven’t discussed PPD specifically but I may bring it up. Mostly we talk about specific issues as they arise.

25 weeks! She weighed 1 lb 2 oz. I post every two weeks or so about her :)
